Conversion cylinders, part 2

Oh, okay. That's no problem for me at all.

I like conversion black powder pistols for one reason alone. They're different. I don't want to have a Smith and Wesson just like everyone else, or a Glock just like everyone else. I want people to look at my gear and get curious.

Well, if there's someone out at the range when I whip out the Old Army and start makin' smoke, it generally gathers attention. There was an indoor range in a nearby larger town some years ago. I had the stainless Old Army then. Went in there and started smokin' the place up and they requested I abstain from the cap and ball. Oh, well, I guess you could gather attention with a conversion without getting run off from an indoor range, eh?

Tee Hee! Smokin up an indoor range, done it here myself! Was amusin! (Had four loaded up ready ta go, and emptied um all afor i was asked to leave)Tried tellin um was great for trainin as if you were shootin on a foggy night, they did'nt care!

Actually I asked if i could shoot BP indoors at my local gunshop. If I am the only one there(usually first one in on Sat. Mornings) I can untill someone else wants to shoot. . But I now load either Unique or Trail Boss(I like Trail Boss) so it isn't an issue, but all those folks with their autos, sure want to shoot the "old" guns.
I usually have folks standing around on their dime watching me shoot on my dime(we're all on the clock in the shooting range). I find the Conversions shot as well or mostly better than their auto's.

How can you miss at PB range with a Glock 40Cal?
I qualified witrh a deputy's S & W auto for my CCW, I had never shot the piece, had had one like it, but a few years prior. Had not fired a pistol in over a year, picked it up and fired an 89 at their ranges of fire.

I'll take my '58 Remmy conversions, thank you. Don't waste near the ammo...LOL

Here's one on Fleabay. It is open onthe side for loading but doesn't have a loading gate:

Well, I can't get one afterall. I had a "little problem" with my car - an F350 rear ended it at a stopsign.
